As I recently discussed Selenium, it might be useful to know how to take screen captures during tests. I’ve found that putting the function into a java method makes usage a LOT easier… here are the relevant code bits (obviously this will not run on it’s own). Feel free to expand on it as needed as this is just a stub.

For quite some time, my primary Ubuntu laptop has had a problem with the keyboard keys used to adjust the screen brightness. This had been an annoyance on some of my travels where I’d wanted to extend battery life, as well as when I prefer to work in a darker space. I knew that it had to be a software driver issue of some sort, as it worked in my sometimes used dual boot Windows environment, but I’d never been bothered enough to look for a solution.
